How do you drive traffic from TikTok to your website?

Short answer: Drive traffic by adding a clickable link to your bio (or a link-in-bio page for multiple destinations), then telling viewers exactly where to go and why in the video and caption. TikTok limits outbound links, so the bio link plus a clear verbal call to action is your main path off-platform.

Set up the path off TikTok

TikTok keeps people in-app, so outbound traffic takes deliberate setup. Add a clickable website link in your bio (available once you meet TikTok's requirements; a business or many creator accounts can add one). If you need to send people to more than one place, use a single link-in-bio page that lists your destinations. Keep the path short. Every extra tap loses people, so link straight to the thing you're promoting, not a cluttered homepage.

Make viewers actually click

Tell them where to go, out loud. 'Link in my bio for the full guide' converts far better than assuming they'll look.
Create a reason. A free download, a discount, a template, or 'part two lives on my site' gives the click a payoff.
Match the video to the destination. If the video is about a recipe, the link should go to that recipe, not a generic page.
Reinforce in the caption and a pinned comment, since not everyone hears the audio.
Point to the bio, since TikTok doesn't make in-video links clickable for most creators.

Expect click-through to be modest. Even good videos send a small fraction of viewers off-platform, so lead with volume and a strong reason. Track which videos actually drove visits (use your site analytics or a UTM link) and make more like the ones that worked.

The biggest leak is silence. A huge share of creators never say 'link in bio' out loud. Add one clear spoken call to action and a payoff for clicking, and your off-platform traffic jumps.
